Pumpkin Patch Nursery Worthing (St Botolphs)

Our daughter has been attending the childcare centre for nearly two years and she loves it. The team work hard with the kids, to nurture and assistance their development. Activities are created based on the interests and ideas of the kids, allowing them to see their own concepts evolve. They also communicate well with us parents too, consistently responding to our messages and keeping us up to date with their development. Considering we had to find a childcare centre during lockdown, I sense highly lucky to have picked Pumpkin Patch! We couldn’t be happier with Pumpkin Patch Childcare centre!

My son is autistic and the team here truly understand his needs and he has come on leaps and bounds since being here. I definitely suggest this childcare centre to any parent. This childcare centre goes above and beyond and both my kids adore it here.

He loves the outdoor space and as parents, we are truly impressed by the facilities e.g. outdoor classroom, atelier, forest and beach school and large airy classrooms with lots of different discovering corners to engage and inspire kids. The kids are supported in their discovering with incredible and unusual activities and updates with parents is constant and prompt through the parnet app. We are highly cheerful with the educators and the management who show understanding and passion. We are also impressed by the training opportunities for team development including trips to Iceland and Italy to shadow and train in foreign settings. We are not surprised Pumpkin Patch Childcare centre have opened another branch due to their success – they work hard for it and deserve it. Educators are super supportive and seem cheerful in their jobs. We adore this childcare centre. Our son has been at this childcare centre for 10 months and during this time his speech has developed loads.

Our son has been going three days a week since he was 1 (now just over 2) and his development and enjoyment that he gets out of going every day is fantastic to watch after a tough initial period of settling in – the team were excellent throughout keeping us posted and regularly touching base with us to discuss how to help him settle in. He clearly loves going and now runs in at drop-off, and regularly talks about his friends and the team when he’s at home. They’re excellent at keeping us updated with how he’s doing, both during the day and at pick-up, as well as working on his longer-term development. He is hypermobile and therefore took longer to walk than some other kids of his age which the childcare centre were excellent at helping him find his self‑assurance with and catch up, moving him to the toddler room early to give him more chances to run around and practice. I couldn’t praise Pumpkin Patch Childcare centre and the team more.

It is a cheerful and positive setting which has supported and developed her into a confident little character. The outdoor space is incredible! I cannot fault Pumpkin Patch, St Botolphs, my daughter loves attending.

The app is incredibly useful and it truly helps keep in the loop with what my little one has been up to and offers a truly convenient way to reach members of the team with any questions or requests. The activities they provide are consistently evolving and there are plenty of hands-on enjoyable, creative activities both indoors and outdoors. My daughter has built truly strong relationships with members of the team and I’m never in any doubt that she’s in highly attentive hands while she is there. Should she ever have a rare unsettled drop off the team consistently make extra effort to let me know once she’s settled and what she’s up to. She leaves her sessions at Pumpkin Patch with a big smile on her face which is testament to the work of the fantastic people that make Pumpkin Patch such a lovely childcare centre. I’ve been delighted with this setting from day one, the updates between childcare centre and parent has consistently been remarkable.

We have sent both of our kids to Pumpkin Patch who have had the same individual, personable experiences. The team treat every kid as if they are their own which is abundantly obvious at pick up with the smile on their faces and spring in their step! The team genuinely adore your kid which makes us all sense highly special and cared for as a family. We are so highly grateful to have found Pumpkin Patch which has given both our boys the highly best start in life. We’ve watched them grow in self‑assurance and make some incredible friends, some of which we are still in touch with and will hopefully be in their lives forever! To sum up Pumpkin Patch with a few keywords (because I could go on forever!); Incredible, Inspirational, Attentive, Expert, Personable, Compassionate, Attentive, Magical, Diligent – a home from home. We have been with Pumpkin Patch for 5 years now and have been absolutely astounded with the care, compassion and professionalism from every member of team.

The team at the childcare centre are incredible and that shows when I drop off my daughter, she goes in with open arms and no fuss. In fact, she asks to go to childcare centre on days she isn’t in!
The team are exceptionally proactive in giving regular updates on my daughter through the parent app which is so appreciated and something I know other parents do not get at other Nurseries.
I cannot suggest them enough, I sense my daughter is richer in her development and they make our family sense comfortable every time we drop her off. I honestly sense blessed that we have this childcare centre so close to our home.

We’ve not had any issues with either of them and they’ve consistently had a nice day – so can only give highly great feedback and a recommendation. Our eldest spent two years at Pumpkin Patch (St Botolphs) and loved it – he still wants to come and see the team sometimes when we pick up our youngest kid, who is also loving the team, activities, toys and overall setting.

My kid was quite shy, and the team built a connection with her, helping her build self‑assurance and come out of her shell. She genuinely loves going to Pumpkin Patch Childcare centre and speaks highly fondly of the educators.
A excellent place, with a remarkable team, who I trust and adore working with my kid. The team have been fantastic in supporting my daughter and providing a secure, nurturing, enjoyable and educational setting.
